Bologna, Italy Picture: Just a little of the food the area around the Po valley is noted for.

James Martin
There are pasta shops, vegetable markets, and delis offering the many cured meats and cheeses of the Po valley.

From here you can walk north to the Piazza de Porta Ravengnana, where Bologna's two famous towers, Torri degli Asinelli and Garisenda are located. Yes, they lean...precariously. You can ascend the tallest and most upright, Asinelli, for 3 Euros for a view of Bologna's rooftops. The stairs starting half way up are quite narrow, just so you're warned if you're claustrophobic.
